As far as I know, this thread is still titled "Kudos to Diamondpilot" and many of the posts state positive things about Chris. I don't quite understand what "Hay Dude" gets out of being critical of a member that has contributed so much to TBN.
As far as brand bashing goes, anybody here who feels another member is brand bashing is free to notify a moderator and state how they feel.
my comment was not to the criticality of a post to a member.. but about people picking grammar apart in general.
as for brand bashing... it may state it is verboten.. but in practice.. everybody gets in a few hits now and then.. and as long as it is not a continual tirade for hours and hours.. it usually falls in the 'tolerance' range.
And frankly i'm ok with that.
I own a POS gm product. i know it's a POS.. no one can convince me otherwise unless they want to 100% reimburse me the $$ it's cost me to keep it on 4 wheels and not on it's back.
I do good maint.. it's just been a lemony flavored machine for me.
we've all been there with a machine that bent over and grabbed it's ankles for us.
every brand has them.. whoever gets stuck with that one .. it's just going to be their personal flame.
some have gotten hosed with ford 6.0 powerstrokes... some like me havn't
luck of the draw. some peoples yukon's don't use a quart of oil per 1000m since they day they were bought ( gm says that is "BOOK NORMAL" for that 5.3 go figure..eh? ). some people's fords blow heads off.. some don't..
Dodge ram truck's dash's just crack. everybody knows it.. it just happens... A dodge ram dash from the late 90's to mid 00's that doesn't crack is an exception...
again.. ever maker puts out a machine that passes muster just enough to not be a legitimate lemon when new.. but still manage to stick it to it's owner FOR LIFE.
and then there are the ones that run 20+ years with normal maintenance and common , expected repairs..
that's called life.
